Happy New Year 2012

Happy new year, everyone! I hope everyone had a decent 2011 (though I know it wasn't a great year on many fronts) and hopefully, 2012 brings better things. ^_^

As I am wont to do at this time of year, I thought I'd take a look-see at how things went.  Work kept me very busy at times, but amazingly enough, at the end of the year, some evil time-sink called Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim took my limited free time. ^_~

So, how'd I do anime-wise?


  • Urusei Yatsura - I plowed through  more of this, but there's still a fair amount left. I plan to continue to press forward here until I get to the end of the series.
  • Mobile Suit Gundam - As expected, I did finish this one. I do plan to do the next series in the franchise, but when is the big question.
  • Evangelion 2.x - I did pick this up and loved it. Whenever 3.x comes out, I'll be doing the same. I don't think I did any other anime movies even though I'd considered a few, including the Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha one.
  • Keroro Gunsou - I put in a few more episodes, but not many. I need to press forward more here.
  • Inuyasha Final Act - I just couldn't muster enthusiasm to do this. What I should do is just watch the series and write a final review, skipping my normal episode reviews.
  • Tenchi Muyo! Ryo-ohki OVA 3 - I was reminded the other day that I hadn't blogged this series. ^_^; OK, I'll have to try to do it sooner rather than later and then pick up GXP as well.
  • Armitage III - This is STILL sitting out at my TV. What the heck is wrong with me? ^_^;
  • A Certain Scientific Railgun - This is one I will be blogging, but not on an episode basis. Why? Because I have liked the first two manga volumes well enough to want to watch the anime.  However, in order to actually get something done, I'll pass on the episode blogging and just do the series.

As to what else I watch this year, I've no clue beyond continuing everything that is still currently in progress (new and old).  I should do more opinion pieces on things since those seem to be big draws for some reason. ^_^;

So, in closing (and realizing I have a TON of blog posts to fix from the past), I leave you with a Skyrim wallpaper and some "kawaii" Skyrim anime-styled art from Ghostfire, as I prepare to return to the world of Skyrim and press forward with the main quest. ^_^
